Without needing to read this entire post,,the answer is Yes they can.
I followed their instructions (During this time, I controlled the Asus 66U router with my VAIO laptop. ) and after I followed those instructions... my ASUS desktop suddenly lost it's ability to see any internet access points. Rebooting it did not bring back any internet access ability. It could not see any SSID's but my client list showed six others were on the 2.4 Ghz SSID's. (There are 3 SSID's on the 2.4 Ghz )
Setting the Router back to the settings I had before I followed those instructions did not allow my desktop to get on the internet.
I had to do a restore back to 1/20/2016 on my ASUS desktop to undo the damage.
I have a 2014 ASUS Desktop
CM6730-US002Q
Windows 7 Home Professional 64-bit
Just a little more info... when I bought this desktop computer it did not come with an Ethernet card.
On 1/19/2015 I contacted ASUS about it.
They sent an Ethernet card to me, free. 802.11n Wireless LAN card
Under Device Manger... My 2012 Sony VAIO laptop shows that it has a centrino advanced N 6235 network adapter.... and a Microsoft Virtual WiFi Miniport adapter and a Microsoft Virtual WiFi Miniport adapter #2. I can't really tell if they are compatible with 5 Ghz. But the ASUS desktop is a 2014 and I would think that it should be able to see both 2.4 and 5 Ghz.
So far... on this problem, everything that Asus technical support has been of no help. I had great cust support from them in 2014 but sadly, they've gone downhill a lot since then.
